This was our first trip with an 8 month old - it was a great hotel for first getaway. Rooms very clean, having the kitchenette was awesome and the rooms were quiet. We couldn't hear our neighbors & we worried they'd hear our baby. But nothing. Views of the Merced River from our balcony was a real treat when relaxing in the AM. Location was perfect - about 30 minutes from the Valley floor. The only bad aspect of the hotel room was the bed - it was really uncomfortable, too soft for my liking & the pillows were hards as rocks. Overall - we're planning to make this an annual trip for us. The staff were very personable and the location was great!
Had a hesitation about paying a little more for a hotel but once we pulled up all doubts flew out the window. Start with the valet, concierge and quick check in. Rooms are a just a little larger than average but make up for it by being plush. Beds & sitting area are plush and comfortable. Bathroom is nice sized with seperate "dressing area" and wonderful soaps and lotions. You get a coffee maker plus small refrigerator, desk, several phones, tv and elect. game for kids (at addl cost). The decor is wonderful! Pool was nice with a spa and fitness room that we didn't use. Gift shop is great for things left home. We ate at Jack-a-Lope's one night and took our drinks to the lobby & enjoyed in front of the fireplace while kids read books (they also provide games for the children to enjoy). The location was wonderful, only a few minutes to town to shopping and restaurants and a couple of minutes the other way into the beautiful Yosemite National Park. Our only iffy thought was the total hands on service. The Guest Service desk will make all reservations for you, give you maps, info and opinions on local area. I know that is what most people want on vacation but it's not something I'm accustomed to and hard to swallow for a control freak...but this is optional. The whole family can't wait to go back. My daughter who has traveled frequently said upon walking in the room, "this is a nice hotel." If nothing else that made it worth it. Oh yeah, in season they have an outdoor ice skating rink that is nothing less than awesome!!
I just returned from four days at the Tenaya Lodge, and I highly recommend it. I felt compelled to write this review because before I arrived at Tenaya Lodge, I read several recent reviews on this site, and they were not highly complimentary to say the least. I found the staff to be tremendously helpful, courteous, and friendly. The food at the Jackalope was great, as was the complimentary breakfast each morning in the dining room. Our eggs were made to order, and we selected other items like bacon, hash browns etc, from the buffet. The fruit was fresh and delicious. People writing reviews on this site had complained about noise in the hotel. We had a room on the top floor, and we heard no noise at all. Yes, there were children with some families, but they served as a nice addition to the inviting atmosphere in the hotel. Our room was very comfortable, exceptionally clean, and it had a lovely view of the surrounding trees. All of our requests were met with an enthusiastic "No problem..." For example, an entree contained mushrooms which I am not able to eat. I asked if it could be prepared without mushrooms, and the reply was " Yes sir, no problem at all". By the way, out food server xxx, was attentive, polite and made us feel at home from the moment we were seated. The same can be said for xxx, who was our server on one occasion. From the time we were greeted upon our arrival by xxx at the front desk, to the time our bags were loaded into our car for the trip home by a nice young man named xxx, we were treated like royalty. I can't say enough good things about this excellent hotel!
First, the flight to Fresno was fine but the drive from Fresno's airport to Tenaya Lodge was a long drive especially when its dark. Those roads are narrow and curvy. When we got to the hotel there were bellboys that greeted us and was willing and ready to take our baggage for us. The check-in was a breeze, We were escorted to the room and was given the tour of the hotel facilites and the room amenities. We went to Tenaya Lodge for a wedding and was happy we went. Me and my Husband love to travel but we have never been to Yosemite National Park before. We enjoyed our meals by the fired at Jackalopes. The food and service there was great. We will definitely recommend this hotel to our friends that are planning to go visit Yosemite.
We really loved this hotel and the location, the pool was great and the trip into the park was beautiful.The only complaint that we had was service in the restaurants. It was very clear that wait staff were serving the bar area as well as the upscale restaurant at the same time. Service was slow at best. The food was good, but we felt for the level of hotel, more staff was in order.
Our room was nice, average size with a comfortable easy chair but the two resturants were not consistant. Reservations were not correct, our main coases were very average but the apitizers were quite good. Our waitress in the nicer resturant was vey good but in the bar and grill our waiter and staff were slow and awkward.
